What character traits (habits) have you noticed in your competitors?
I got asked that question more times then any other playing live poker. at first you are right, it catches you off guard, which can reveal alot to your opponent. especially if you are on a bluff. after further consideration I give the same reply to that question to all my opponents. in order to relay the pressure on them without giving anything away. i tell them "look if you fold i win 100% of the time everytime. if you call you might have a percentage or 2 hope"My favorite question in a live poker game is: do you want me to fold my cards? usually it makes the opponent confused and you can guess by the reaction, try it sometime
